Sheraton Porto Hotel & Spa

I can't say enough amazing things about this hotel. The rooms are large and luxurious like you get almost nowhere in Europe. There's a king size bed that's actually a king size bed and not two separate beds pushed together. The restaurants are terrific. And the spa. Oh the spa. So many saunas. Incredible pool and hot tub. I lived here for the week. Just amazing. The location is amazing. There's an all-you-can-eat sushi place in walking distance that would be $100+ in the US (if it could even exist) that had world class sushi and service but is somehow 20E. Also a McDonald's open late and for some reason European McDonald's is actually pretty high quality.

The hotel is nicely designed and has all the amenities we desired: Spa, quiet rooms, bathtub, close proximity to shops and attractions. The staff was very warm and welcoming. The only reason it misses all stars is that it seems the hotel has to keep up with maintenance. The air condition in our room was louder than a Belgian tractor and in the bathroom there was mold in the tile grout. Also, Crowne Plaza next door has a much better restaurant. Sheraton should hire their chef!

Although the hotel is quite a way from the old town, we found it to be very quiet with very good amenities. We left the car in the hotel car park and used Ubers to visit all the old town areas. Because of the heavy traffic it can take quite a while to get around. The rooms were well equipped and very spacious. However, I would warn anyone using the shower to be very careful as it is very slippy. I slipped and fell and now have the bruises to show for it. I was told at reception that this is not the first time it had been reported. Note to hotel - Please do something about it. For a group hotel the food in the restaurant on an evening was excellent. However, although the breakfast was plentiful, the food in the hot section tended to be cold and the coffee was not fresh. On the whole, an enjoyable experience and I would recommend this hotel

This hotel whilst being slightly outside the historic centre it is very close to metro (5 min walk). Bolt/ Uber are reasonable and Porto is easily walkable . Porto is beautiful and this hotel is an oasis .It is a true reflection of Portugal with kind and friendly staff who look after you so well. Club lounge, breakfast , happy hour(s) with a really good spa. All I can say is you won’t be disappointed at this hotel . Enjoy!

Sheraton Porto treats status members very, very well. We are Marriott loyalists for many years, and currently Titanium. Our stay was 2 paid nights + 2 points nights and we asked to apply award night certificates to our stay. Prior to arriving, it appeared that the upgrades were possible on the paid nights, but not available for the second two nights. We were happy for the upgrade to the Executive Suite and anticipated having to move rooms after two nights. To our delight, at check-in we were informed we could remain in the suite all 4 nights. So unquestionably, our perspective is based on a fabulous upgrade stay. Since, in our more recent experiences at many Marriott-branded properties, we’ve found upgrades stingy, and award night certificates only valid for improved views, not suites, we were even more delighted with how Sherton Porto managed the rooms and elite members. Sheraton Porto reminds me of the Marriott golden era when the number of elites was smaller, upgrades were easier to obtain and “Award Night Certificates” were “Suite Night Certificates”, and that meant a suite. Platinum and up also get the free full breakfast buffet in the restaurant (not just a continental breakfast) and cocktails in the bar for a couple of hours in the evening. If you can obtain the Executive Suites, they are very nice. Not just a double room with a large bathroom, they are on the 12th floor and have a large balcony with a view of the city. What we liked (beyond the upgrade): - Extremely friendly, helpful staff. All spoke English. - A modern, very clean property. Even normal rooms (friends stayed in one) are large by European standards. - Safe, walkable neighborhood. Grocery store about 3 blocks away. - One of the most diverse breakfast buffets we’ve encountered. Certainly, something for everyone. We’d estimate 60+ items offered. The fresh-squeezed orange juice machine and mimosas seemed popular. - We liked the views from the glass elevators in the lobby. If heights bother you, there is an interior elevator near the bar. Couple other notes: - The location is “suburban”, which was great for us. About a 10 euro Uber to the heart of downtown Porto. - There are fairly limited restaurants nearby. We saw about a half dozen during our strolls. Obviously, the hotel features a very nice dining choice. - We noted underground parking, but didn’t use it. This hotel is a great choice in general, and particularly for Marriott loyalists. We’d definitely return to both Porto and this hotel. Couldn’t be happier with the stay.
